Bigge Island, Kimberly, Australia, is host to a mushroom art glyph said to be dated to 35,000 BC (1b). Also, in the Laura-Quinkan, Queensland, Australia, area resides a piece of cave art estimated to be from the 30,000-15,000 BC era, depicting mushroom headed people (1c). At the Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory of Australia, dating back to 6000 BC, there are numerous mushroom-headed people depicted (2c).

This is where we get lots of images which some have claimed to be “ancient astronauts” or extraterrestrials. These images clearly depict mushroom populations, and enlightened “consciousness.” One of the reasons I believe these are mushrooms is because there are related depictions of these same people as multiple “spores,” and these are not people, but mushroom populations (2e). As well, there are depictions which look just like mushroom caps (2a).  (1e) Wandjina Art, Australia c. 2000-1500 BC |
